Diaper Baby Cake Preparation Tips And Photos

This is my first diaper cake, so i know they will just get better. This is made with a cardboard base supporting a papertowel tube attached to it in the center with tissue paper covering the base. Attached are a receiving blanket, washcloths, nail clippers, bar of soap, bath sponges, teething ring, top and pant set rolled up, and 3 pair of socks tied at the top and spread out like a flower in the front. I kept the cartoon band of the diapers showing for the colors. What fun we had making this!

Here's a baby diaper cake I made all from Walmart supplies, the theme of the babyshower was baseball for the little boy :)

This diaper cake was made for a friend of mine. I used about 43 diapers in the cake. The diapers I bought happened to have a light green design on them. It gave the diaper cake a nice spring look. After rolling the diapers, I placed diapers overlapping around the cake to give it a smoother finish. I tied ribbon around each layer to hold it together. Then I decorated it with pins and various baby items. On the top of the cake I placed 3 pastel baby spoons. It turned out really cute. This is a side picture of the cake, so it does not show all the pretty detail of the cake. It was the highlight of the baby shower!

I wanted to do something different for my daughter's baby shower and tried making a diaper cake. It worked out well. It was the topic of conversation at the party.

This is a diaper cake I made for my niece. It's the same diaper cake that most people make, but I decorated it a little differently. I added pacifiers, thermometers, diaper cream, baby aspirin and numbing gel.

This was my first diaper cake ever. I made it for my cousins baby shower and everyone really liked it!I used 66 size 1 diapers. On the bottom layer,before I started, I put a layer of bibs on the bottom. Then I began to layer (inside layer-I used rubber bands to secure the layer closest to the baby powder container). On the outside I tied each diaper with ribbon and then when the bottom was done I secured with a It's a girl ribbon. I secured this ribbon with a baby safety pin.I did the second layer the same and the 3rd is when I added the flower at the top. I just added some toys pacifiers, rubber ducks, frogs, teething ring, etc.Since it is a summer cake I added some butterflies and a few it's a girl embellishment stickers on.

The sock roses and diaper cake were a conversation piece for guests and the Mom-to-Be loved them too! AND... I had a great time making the diaper cake. It was much easier to do than I expected.

I already posted photos of this diaper cake. But I had redone it so it looked much cleaner. Friends were amazed at the shower. Here are the new photos. Many items are inside. For the center i used two round containers; one containing baby items, the other for mom (candy, bath salts, etc). I loved doing it and I am planning to make two more soon for my sister in law and best friend. Opinons would be appreciated. Thanks!.

Inspired by this wonderful website, I decided to try my hand at diaper cake making and viola! I rolled 74 size 1 Parent's Choice diapers to make it. There are three rows on the bottom tier, two rows on the second tier and one row on the top tier. The hidden treats in the middle are 1- 8oz bottle and 1-4oz bottle. There are 4 washclothes on the front for decoration along with cupcake toppers of teddy bears and rattles. The ribbon is secured with double sided tape and the topper was $1 at a local dollar store. I LOVE curled ribbon so I had to add some for a finishing touch. Since I have never been crafty, the fact that it only took me about 45 minutes total to roll diapers and assemble this cake makes me VERY proud and sure I am going to try my hand at some of the cakes I've seen on this site!

I was a co-hostess at a shower at my place of employment. I volunteered to make the fruit basket and the diaper cake. I have pictures of both. Have made diaper cakes before but I got my fruit basket instructions from your website.

I made this Diaper Cake for a friend of mine that I threw a shower for recently. It was my first attempt at such a cake, and I'm so pleased with the way it turned out that I thought I would share! Another co-hostess for the shower had gotten a diaper cake at her own shower a few years ago, and was disappointed with the way it was constructed - the pins holding the ribbon to the different layers were actually pinned to the diapers, rendering them unusable after the cake was disassembled! So I primarily used rubber bands, and I made sure that I pinned the ribbon only to itself once I had wrapped it around the cake to prevent holes in the diapers. I pinned the bows to the ribbon, and tied the little goodies onto the large ribbon around the layer and also to the rubber band underneath for stability. I hope this helps someone else out! This site helped me greatly to make my very first diaper cake! :o)
